Donald Trump faces a dilemma. On one hand, he appears as a leader struggling with the conflict in Iran. Yet, he also attempts to adopt a tough persona reminiscent of 1980s action heroes, issuing threats to the very country involved in the conflict he initiated.
Traditionally, the President of the United States delivers an Easter message, a typically understated event.

This Easter Sunday, Trump is making threats that, if executed, could be considered both impeachable offenses and war crimes.
In a post on his social media platform, Trump declared:
Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckinâ Strait, you crazy bastards, or youâll be living in Hell – JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP
Previously, Monday was mentioned as the deadline for Iranâs surrender, but it seems that has shifted to Tuesday.
Jake Tapper read Trumpâs threat on CNN:
Tapper issued a language warning to viewers, especially those with children present, before reading:
He has just threatened Iran in extraordinarily graphic terms, giving the Iranian regime just over a day to either make a deal, reopen the Strait of Hormuz, or face hell. If your children are watching, be warned, the president did not use polite language.
On this Easter Sunday, the United States has a president whose statements are not suitable for children.
Let’s delve into the topic of war crimes.
